The Shoremen graduated multiple key pieces from last year's squad as Hubert was a critical peformer as a sophomore. As a DS/L for one of the top 16U teams in Ohio over the recent club season, Hubert's movement and efficiency in the first-touch phase made quality gains and should be helpful to get Avon Lake's offense into good situations. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["903283"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a7cd6c89b75a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Mader is a great athlete, including as one of the top girls basketball prospects in the 2028 Ohio class. She was a big force for Tippecanoe on the volleyball court last season as the Red Devils claimed the DIII crown on an unbeaten 29-0 overall record. At 6'0, Mader elevates well and can put some good pace on the ball as a primary pin attacker. The rising junior is their top returning offensive threat after earning 3.3 k/s on 212 total kills. She also added 7.8 d/m.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":1017944,"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":231293,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a7cd6c89b788"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Miami Trace consistently fields a competitive volleyball team each fall and this season is no different with Guess back in the lineup offensively. She was terrific in 2025 with a career high 4.4 k/s average. The 5'11 pin terminated a total of 351 kills while adding over seven digs per match. She also led the Panthers in total blocks and service aces. Her effort with Aleta 17-1 showcased her six-rotation tools and ability to be terminal from both pins and out of the back row.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["774779"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a7cd6c89b7b4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The rising sophomore is a key returning piece for Gilmour Academy as they feature a good mix of young and veteran talent. Martin had a great freshman season in 2025 as she led the Lancers with 330 digs for a 13.3 d/m average. This is a group hungry for another postseason run following their loss in the DIII regional semifinal round. With high quality in a variety of positions, they will be dangerous each time they take the court.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":830496,"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":231293,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a7cd6c89b7e1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Entering her final season for the Rangers, Langdon returns following her best season yet among her first three varsity opportunities. Witha career best 253 kills in 2025, she led her squad with a 3.2 k/s average. Picking up 13.0 d/m, she also led the Rangers at the service line with 47 aces. At 5'8, Langdon is an athletic and crafty attacker with ability to use power and finesse to swing with good range. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
